FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of faux leather.

How do I adjust the fit of the sandal?

The sandal features an adjustable buckle ankle strap that can be tightened or loosened to achieve a personalized fit.

Is the footbed supportive for walking?

Yes, the sandal has a cork footbed designed for comfort and support, ideal for casual walking.

What is the heel height?

The sandal has a flat sole with a 1-inch heel and a 7/8-inch platform.

Can these sandals be worn in wet conditions?

While the textured rubber outsole provides some grip, the faux leather and cork footbed are not designed for prolonged exposure to water. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or submerging them in water.

How should I clean the cork footbed?

Gently wipe the cork footbed with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid soaking the footbed.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The multi-strap design and adjustable ankle strap offer some flexibility, but the fit may vary. It's recommended to try them on if possible, or check customer reviews regarding width accommodation.

Troubleshooting

Strap feels too loose or too tight

Adjust the buckle on the ankle strap to find the most comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the buckle is fastened correctly.

Footbed feels stiff initially

The cork footbed is designed to mold to your foot with wear. Wear the sandals for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Faux leather scuff marks

For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, consult a leather care specialist or use a faux leather cleaner designed for such materials.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

Ensure the textured rubber outsole is clean. If wear is significant, consider a shoe repair shop for sole maintenance or replacement.
